HTC Ville's the slimmest HTC smartphone at 8mm

Earlier this month, it was reported that HTC had a new handset in the works, which is scheduled for a debut at the Mobile World Congress (MWC), next year. The upcoming handset is reportedly known as the HTC Ville and it will be the thinnest smartphone from HTC measuring at 8mm thin uniformly, unlike the Motorola RAZR, which features the bump. According to a report by Phandroid, the upcoming Droid will feature a metal unibody design and could be one of the first smartphones to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S4 platform.
